For such a great mid-fi belt-drive turntable, the 80s-era Harman Kardon T60 seems to be often overlooked. I have two of them, one with a Shure V15vmr, the other with a Grado Gold. The T60 looks and feels substantial, seems to be very well made, has a great arm, adjustable pitch, is an excellent performer, and allows the use of any interconnect cables. Its auto lift feature is selectable and works well. It also includes a record weight. Its clean and simple appearance still looks good today.
Good automatic TT's
Hello,
I'd appreciate suggestions for a good used automatic TT. I'm very happy with my reference table but sometimes I like to listen without the need to jump up at the end of an LP to prevent damage to an expensive stylus. Auto cueing would be good too for when the hand gets shaky from mind altering substances.
I had a JVC Q5F and it was OK with a record clamp and Ortofon MC-5. I see some Denons (47 and 59F,s) and even some B&O's in the $200-500 range. Any experience with these in terms of reasonable sound or just always listen sober?
